UNCLE TOM'S LETTER Uncle Tom felt that he was indeed very fortunate to have found such a kind master and so good a home.

He had nice clothes, plenty of food, and a comfortable room to sleep in.

He had no hard, disagreeable work to do.
His chief duties were to drive Mrs.St.Clare's carriage when she wanted to go out, and to attend on Eva when she wanted him.

He soon grew to love his little mistress very, very much indeed.
Mr.St.Clare too began to find Tom very useful.

He was dreadfully careless about money, and his chief servant was just as careless as his master.
